Dear all,

We are happy to announce that the fresh *Orfeo ToolBox 5.2 Release 
Candidate 1 is ready for testing!*

Some new features come with this new OTB version :
   
   - 
   
   Machine learning : regression support in machine learning models and 
   existing classification filters + two applications dedicated to regression 
   training and prediction.
   - 
   
   SAR imagery : basic support of Sentinel1 products, radiometric 
   calibration updated, new SAR processings (polarimetry, decompositions, 
   conversion of polarimetric matrices to each other) and related new 
   applications.
   - A better no-data support : Read, Manage, Write no-data in OTB.
   - A richer Python wrapping : numpy array support, new way of writing an 
   application in Python

In addition, two new remotes modules are shipped with OTB :
-Generic Region Merging Segmentation: providing the GRM OTB application to 
perform multi-scale region-merging segmentation on satellite images. Three 
local homogeneity criteria are available: the Baatz & Schäpe criterion, the 
Full Lambda Schedule criterion and the simple Euclidean Distance criterion.
-Images mosaicking: one application dedicated to images mosaicking with 
several compositing methods available (radiometric/color harmonization, 
feathering).
